We’re just a few days into President Donald Trump’s second term and his administration is shaping up to pose significant threats to climate progress. As promised, the Trump administration announced plans on day one to loosen environmental regulations in favor of polluters, pull critical funding for clean energy incentive programs, and abandon key climate commitments at a time when the stakes couldn’t be higher.
Climate change is here and despite incoming threats from the Trump administration, we will not stop fighting for equitable climate policies that save Vermonters money and help defend communities against the impacts of extreme weather.
We need your help holding Governor Scott accountable for upholding his promise to protect Vermonters against the exponentially increasing costs climate change will bring to our state. Sign and share our petition calling for Scott to lead on upholding Vermont’s climate commitments in the face of threats to our progress from the Trump administration.
Vermonters deserve leaders who will defend existing environmental protections and climate solutions to ensure that communities across the state are safe from the impacts of climate change and have access to affordable, clean energy. Add your name to this petition to send Governor Scott a clear message that Vermont needs climate action, not a furthering of Trump’s backward environmental agenda. We will deliver this petition directly to the Governor in February.
